Wikipedia: Jesus yes, Rothschilds no
Wikipedia has a longstanding practice of promoting Jesus Christ as a real figure who existed. The issue is that those “arguments and evidence” are ad hoc. If Christian scholars defy Jesus’ existence, their career may end. People without critical thinking accept whatever appears polished and repeated. They trust the first source they see, they trust…

Is Wikipedia evil and does it serve the super-rich?
My readers know I am not a fan. My view of Wikipedia has worsened as a whole. I wrote about how animalistic it is, how it promotes our prehistoric instincts instead of data, how it contributed to ruining my life with their lousy article on schizophrenia (which is, unbelievably, a featured article), and how secret…

Make all people speak English

More than ten years ago, I suffered from delusions (I didn’t know these were delusions), cognitive impairment, depression and severe negative symptoms (lack of emotions, not enjoying anything). Since I had a turbulent relationship with my psychiatrist who also didn’t warn me about the possibility of having schizophrenia, I relied mainly on a featured article…

Wikipedia – Instead of promoting rationality, they tell you how many people died somewhere
Who would think that Wikipedia which should promote scientific discourse, free inquiry, and rationality is living in obscurantism? People are evolutionary programmed that if you kill a child that is a problem (and, of course, it should be). And since the means of contraception didn’t exist nearly all the time people were in existence, when…

Encyclopedia Britannica childish view of the world – the good and bad guys
I have had an opportunity to browse via Encyclopedia Britannica and not only it stunned me with poor quality (I would say on the Wikipedia level, maybe even worse) but it also made me laugh because of the childish understanding of the world it has had. Their biography section had some divisions: the good guys…
